Analysis of the events and circumstances, and commentary by a lawyer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wXmAeMQCvZQ permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 6 child comments replies: [–] takeda@lemmy.world 81 points 2 years ago (2 children) He says that Baldwin is unlikely charged for firing the gun but more likely for being a producer who failed to ensure that the set is safe. The thing is that he right now is being charged for firing the gun not for falling as a producer, that's why it seems pretty weird like they are really trying to sack him for some reason. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 4 child comments replies: [+] LillyPip@lemmy.ca 2 points 2 years ago [deleted] permalink fedilink source parent [–] PopcornTin@lemmy.world 1 point 2 years ago (1 child) When you fire a gun, and it hits someone, you can't be that surprised when you are charged with that. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] frozen@lemmy.frozeninferno.xyz 18 points 2 years ago (1 child) You absolutely can if you have every reason to believe it's not firing a live round, like say, on a film set, where all weapons are supposed to be cleared with armorers/prop masters. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] PopcornTin@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago ... and the actors.

I'm wondering if there's anything more recent with more info about what actually happened. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] aksdb@feddit.de 2 points 2 years ago Legal Eagle?
